Renal failure is a common disease that many elderly people suffer from for physical reasons, but now more and more middle-aged people also suffer from it. Especially some middle-aged women are at high risk for renal failure. Why do middle-aged women find renal failure? Let's introduce it below.
Experts say there are many reasons that can lead to kidney failure, mainly related diseases. For example, chronic glomerulonephritis, interstitial nephritis dominated by chronic pyelonephritis and other self diseases, as well as hypertension, diabetes and other systemic diseases, of which the most easily misdiagnosed is interstitial nephritis dominated by chronic pyelonephritis, which ranks second in the incidence rate of chronic renal failure.
Before the occurrence of chronic nephritis, urinary tract infections often occur, and women have more urinary tract infections. Because the disease does not have the common edema symptoms of kidney disease, it is difficult to attract people's attention. Even if it has developed into the early and middle stages of chronic renal failure, symptoms such as mild anemia, hypertension, and polyuria are not easy to attract attention, and are often misdiagnosed as hypertension or other diseases. Therefore, doctors call it a "hidden killer". When typical symptoms such as nausea and vomiting occur, it is often at the end of irreversible renal failure. It can be seen that this type of renal failure caused by pyelonephritis appears to be coming with a fierce momentum, but in fact, it has a slow progression process ranging from one to two years to several years. After investigating the cause, the culprit should be a urinary tract infection that occurred several years ago.
The above is why middle-aged women are prone to kidney failure. It can be seen that women should take special care of their physical health, especially when their bodies suffer from diseases such as urinary tract infections, and must not delay treatment, as development may lead to chronic nephritis and other diseases, leading to renal failure.
